3240. Are You a Charismatic Teacher?

Some useful and
interesting points for today. I know about a man that used to say that the more
you study something the more you like it! And that’s something we can explain
to our students. The more you learn about something the more you’ll be
interested on it.

He had chosen the degree of Medicine, kind of by chance.
However he had applied all his energies to studying that degree and really he
became a prestigious doctor in Spain, Eduardo Ortiz de Landázuri. He died in
1985.

He also said – he as well became a college professor – that being a kind-hearted
and good-natured teacher was not against being a teacher that could achieve to
lead a class of students. Kindness was not against classroom-management and
discipline.

Alike I know a teacher that even smiles often to his students, and
his students have a big respect toward him! He has kind of some charisma, yet
he’s normal. / Photo from: Today I Found Out. The picture is just an
